Gwent - Open Beta Thread: Not bad, not bad at all

"LOCK OR DESTROY THIS AI CHALLENGES UNITS BEFORE THEY BECOME POWERFUL!"

*Mulligan screen, starter deck: No locks or destroying cards, despite mulligan'ing 3 other cards*

Like poetry. *applause* CD Project Red.
Yes, I'm a little mad

I guess they want you to edit the starter decks, but that begs the question: Why are they starter decks then? I guess to learn the game with and not do the actual challenges with?



Card ability. Forgetting the keyword, but it'll keep them there (for a faction), or bring them back from the Graveyard due to Leader ability/card ability.

All the starter decks have Cleaver which is a silver lock card with 6 strength.
 
Welp, 20 min before daily reset, I managed to get final tier daily reward at least

Close call though
 
Also, got to rank 11 today, about 1815 mmr. Abused the reaver hunter deck for a bit but now I'm against pretty much 80% nilfgaard and they are the decks glaring weakness so went back my skellige consistency.
 
Just got to lvl 10 and got placed in Rank 5.

wait, you're supposed to get a rank when you hit 10? guess I suck because I stayed at rank 1.

edit: oh I see, you have to actually click on ranked play to get your placement. looks like I got placed at 5 as well. went 2-0 and made it to 6.
 
Donar an Hildar is so underrated, he's put in some serious work for me stealing cards from opponents. Plus I love his audio line of screaming "HANGGG MEEEE" :P
 
Gold cards are generally immune to hostile interactions from other card except for Dimeritium Shackles.

So .. no, summoning circle wouldn't work. but I'd be surprised if I'm proven wrong.
 
lol, just played against a NR opponent who played Djikstra and it drew into scorch which killed his own stuff :p

I felt bad for em. NR golds really do seem lackluster though compared to other factions. I mean John Natalis is alright but everything else is kind of meh..

Nah, Tibor still puts in work, he's way better than Hjalmar imo. The guy that destroys spies can be decent as well plus re-using your leader ability a second time is nothing to sneeze at.
 
Yeah, weather is in a weird place. I was trying out a Nilfgaard reveal deck, but I made Rag no Roog, and now my monster deck is doing alright. I wouldn't be surprised if there is some change, but it seems weather in Gwent has went through multiple iterations...

TFW when NR have to borrow NG cards to be considered decent.
 
RIP abbreviations!

Um, Djikstra is about it. Shani is great in some set ups.

It's almost like they forgot that they took away northern realm's faction passive.
 
People disconnecting to avoid giving a round win is pretty petty. I guess I'll tell myself anything could have happened.

If the opponent disconnects you should be getting 2 rounds won that count towards your daily progress. I think unfortunately you only get +50XP, which is the lowest XP you can get for a win.

Finally got Level 10, got assigned Rank 7, went into Ranked and there was definitely a drop in quality of my opponents. Stomped my opponents easily into Rank 8.

Still waiting for balance hotfix before committing to crafting anything...

I'm actually just an idiot. I forgot I lost my first game earlier today so I was at an odd number.
 
I think you get rounds that count towards daily if they just quit but if its the first round you might not get it if their client has issues.
 
Thank you!

Downloading now.

Edit: Are there plans to make it crossplay between each other?

I want to play with everyone. Otherwise, I'll download it on my xbox and pc as well.

It already is cross-play, PS4/PC and XB1/PC.

Cross-save is what it's not, meaning your card collection currently is only on the platform you play.

Yea Rank 7 is very easy, specially now, because top players are already around rank 14 now.
 
I'm going to be very pissed if I can't play Gwent today.

I have a Gwent problem.

Does anyone here have the real Gwent decks? I do.
